SALVATION is an INDIVIDUAL AFFAIR between
every person and God. NOT with our nation, with
our church, but with ourselves before God we
answer.
The WALK with Christ is an INDIVIDUAL WALK.
You walk, you stand ALONE with you and God
alone. NOT you and the pastor, you and God
alone. NOT you and the deacon. Sometimes you
and your wife, you and your husband, but you
and God alone. You stand alone on your
convictions. Salvation is not a church affair. It's
an INDIVIDUAL AFFAIR . Church is a gathering
place where we come in one common grounds
and worship God. But salvation isn't because
you've joined the church, it's because you've
believed on the Lord Jesus Christ and accepted
Him as your personal Saviour.
It's NOT a church affair. It's an INDIVIDUAL
AFFAIR. It's NOT whether my church is saved;
it's whether I AM saved. It isn't whether my
deacon's saved, or my pastor's saved, or my
mother's saved; it's whether I AM saved or not,
myself, I must be saved. And then, if they're
saved, wonderful; if they're not, I must still
remain saved. I must retain my salvation.
I tell you, salvation is an INDIVIDUAL AFFAIR
with man and God, alone, ONE individual,
"searching out our own salvation with fear and
trembling." And I know no other basis, as a
teacher, this morning, or as a minister from
Christ, than to lay it down upon the WORD. I
cannot place it on anything else." Amen!
